''Chunhyang'' is a movie directed by famous Korean filmmaker Im Kwon-taek (whose following movie was ''[[Drunk On Women and Poetry]]'') and released in 2000. It is based on a ''pansori'', a type of traditional Korean performance that involves a storyteller reciting and singing a narrative to the sound of a drum. The movie depicts both the pansori itself being performed, and the story being told. |
